TESTIMONIALS

The Race touches both extremes. It was the toughest but also one of the best weekends I've ever had. - Emma Kerr, Competitor 2015

A great race with a great bunch of people in a great part of the world. - Bill Wells, Competitor 2014

When I finished the race, I was broken, you guys put me through hell, the weather and the terrain made this a far tougher challenge than I had imagined. But I felt privileged to be competing among such astoundingly strong people, in such a stunning place. I recommend it, but only to the brave, the foolhardy, and the extremely fit!- Kate Kelly, Competitor 2015
